We stayed for 1 week and thought it the perfect place. it is across the road from the famous two leaning towers and less than 5 minutes walk from the main square. The residence is on the 3rd floor \ piano and there is an exellent lift. We had a large room with comfortable beds, plenty of storage space, chairs... More

My husband and I recently spent four nights at this b&b in bologna and can't recommend it highly enough. As people have noted the location is absolutely perfect, you're right in the centre of the city. What we really enjoyed though was the friendliness and warmth of the owners. They were both lovely. The rooms are really generous in size,... More

Albergo Garisenda on Via Rizzoli is right in the centre of Bologna, a short stroll from Piazza Maggiore. It’s a B&B with 7 rooms and the owners live on-site. It’s on the 3rd floor of a large building with other commercial activities on lower floors, serviced by a lift. We stayed for 3 nights B&B, paying €250 for an en-suite... More

We weren't sure where to stay in bologna. We found there were so many different hotel and b&b options and mixed reviews across those in our price range. Albergo garisenda could not have been better. Perfect location. Big clean rooms. Very clean. Lovely, hospitable owners. And good value. This was an easy choice after all. Highly recommended.

You can't find a better location in Bologna. For the price you get a lot, as the other reviews have noted. If you need air conditioning you're out of luck, but we found the ceiling fan good enough during a heat wave. The proprietors are very nice and aim to please. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

The Garisenda is a wonderful oasis in the busy city of Bologna. It's location is perfect, the management is professional, it is spotlessly clean, very well maintained, and comfortable. I would definately stay here again if I go to Bologna and preferred it over the four star hotel that I stayed in several years ago. The Garisenda has old-fashioned charm... More

We stayed in these rooms on a recent trip - 2 couples. The location is excellent - right beside the two towers in the heart of the old part of Bologna. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. They are a few flights up but there is a lift so no problem. The owner and her staff were very, very... More

The Garisenda was great! The staff was very friendly and it was in a great location for shopping and seeing the sights of Bologna. The food markets are a must see in this city. And some of the best food in our trip to Italy was had in Bologna! The cost of the room was low and the staff spoke... More

We stayed here for 3 nights. Excellent location to walk to most places. Room is perfectly adequate. Sparse but had everything you needed. Very clean. We were the only Americans which was nice. The owners English was good enough to communicate what was needed. Japanese, French, Spanish and Italians made up the guest list. The family lives in rooms off... More
